Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now
Here is a commercially available wargame, a contemporary iteration of a design originally from the 70s, an 80s version of which was actually used in the planning for Desert Storm.
The game assumes that Iran mines the Straits. It can take weeks for the US to clear them.
How do they not know this?
Trying something new. If you are in your LGS over the next day or so, and they have an abundance of Spider-Man sat on their store shelves - can you take a picture or video it, and send that to me? Crowd source some info
Either post it here, or email me at PleasantKenobi@gmail.com
Retweet this pls.
The 1996 draft of the unpublished, unannounced Magic RPG is substantial. I made a few marginal notes when I reviewed it. I'm giving it away for a donation to Planned Parenthood, offered by secret silent auction. DM me with offers. I'm likely to get a few big offers.
"What if?" #mtg #ttrpg 1/2
This is the warning on the blood pressure monitor my dad just got.
Exceptional work. Anybody know what the fuck it’s supposed to mean?
Last line is especially ominous
Here's a draft manuscript of the Magic: The Gathering roleplaying game from 1996, and I've giving it away as a fundraiser for Planned Parenthood, with permission from the authors. Not sure how much to ask for. Vanishingly rare. $1,872 raised so far. #mtg #ttrpg
Attack on the orc tower! by Joana Oehm from yesterday’s session of our AD&D campaign Exkursionen in die Nebelsümpfe.
That's a word I didn't know yet!
I just rolled up a fresh AD&D character for Alex Schröder's Arden Vul campaign: Fakk Rothelm, half-orc fighter. 6 hp, very medium stats. Let's see how long he lasts.
Happy birthday, Ben! I too, am feeling that I have to use the time I have left wisely.
Wake up babe, new Rembrandt dropped!

🥉3rd place (2:1) at chaos draft! I drafted a pretty bad deck with a small elf synergy package, a dragon and Doppelgang, which apparently was good enough in the end.
Totally forgot to post our playmats from the team draft a couple of weeks ago. Above drawn by Johannes Stahl, below by Wayne Snyder and Doug Kovacs.
A scan of the box artwork for Sorcerian Forever, with a photo of painted figurines of an adventuring party gathered in a 3D model dungeon/ruin with a stone staircase curving up and around,, and the party of a kneeling bearded guy with a staff, an elven lass with purple hair and showing a bit of leg by a glowing light, another green haired elf with their hands cupped by the magical wand-light, and a tall armoured warrior with a greatsword over hiis shoulder. It's very much like something you'd see for a D&D diorama display.
Ten years later... The Legend is Reborn.
I loooove this figurine dungeon diorama box cover for Sorcerian Forever (1997), sequel to the original popular Japanese CRPG that was the fifth game of the Dragon Slayer series.

It’s official. Everything sucks
Fun fact you can do everything you want with just HTML tables and people liked that version of the Internet a lot better
It's always heartwarming to stumble upon a nice review of something you've done. "I was actually annoyed that we hadn’t gotten it out sooner when we realized that this is quite a fun little game. We’ve played it 3 times now and everyone has had a good time playing." (for my card game Shinobi Clans)
Give the PR team a raise.

Haha I hope not, but I will wear fancy pants (that are not Lederhosen) and a battlevest.
Somehow I thought that my AD&D 1e game tomorrow at #BavariaCon wouldn't be very popular, but all available spots were taken 12 minutes after being available. o.O
Geht jemand am Wochenende auf den #BavariaCon ?
Ich leite am Samstag ab 12:00 Uhr den One-Shot Klassiker The Lichway mit AD&D 1e.
